[quote=Anonymous]Hi all - I am looking for how others handle this issue anecdotally, I really do not want to be shamed or ridiculed for asking. I’m an employee of a federal agency (think JD/enforcement type role with public trust clearance). I have two kids and am in desperate need of childcare and household help. I’ve posted on Facebook moms groups, care.com, and used an agency. I cannot find someone for my life! The vast majority of candidates I speak to are not willing to be paid on a W-2, all have said they want cash. I’m willing to pay more to ensure the candidates take home the same pay, offering $25-30 in a Midwest city with lower cost of living compared to the east coast. Have any other federal employees or spouses of federal employees had this issue? How do you pay your childcare/house help? Any tips for finding someone who is both experienced and willing to be paid on a W-2?[/quote]
